ChrisBTY posted:Is Dolph Ziggler the X-pac of his generation? In that the fans are sick to hell of him but he sticks around because the boys love wrestling him for some reason? (Probably not. He just won the inertia lottery). Comparing Sean Waltman to loving Dolph Ziggler is one of the meanest things I've ever read.

njsykora posted:Defending a trophy makes me think of the FCW Jack 15 Championship, which was a medal defended in 15 minute Ironman matches. That was a fun gimmick even if the medal was poo poo. I also expect the NXTUK rounds thing could be a fun gimmick but sadly it's on a show I'll never watch.

DogsInSpace! posted:Yeah... it’s tragic how people keep falling for it. Before Reichsbug it was in Der Sturmer. Before QAnon it was Henry Ford and the KKK spreading this poo poo in America. I was reading one place that brought up a book from 1902 that used the same kind of words and ideas about Zionist Conspiracy wanting to erode morals and eat white babies. I will never understand it... Protocols of the Elders of Zion? Yeah, that text never goes away despite being a well established fake that was probably put together by members of The Black Hundreds (rabid Tsarists responsible for a lot of early 20th century pogroms like the notorious Kishinev ones in 1903 and 1905) with assistance from the Okhrana, the Tsarist secret police. 120 years on and it's roots can still be seen in most antisemitic conspiracies from blood libel to the insanity of David Icke

Davros1 posted:2 1/2 weeks until the next Takeover Doesn't feel like that long ago where Takeovers were absolute can't miss shows. Remember R Evolution (god awful show name) with Neville vs Zayn Title vs Career (in NXT) & Kenta & Finn Balor teaming together & a very good Charlotte vs Sasha match back when Charlotte wasn't being pushed like she was HHH himself? Fun times. Even though the shows were smaller, the stakes felt so much bigger.

Rarity posted:It won't happen because our generation won't own the capital needed to turn people into conservatives A lot will, it'll just require their parents dying. But they will acquire assets eventually. Well unless your parents stay alive too long and need to sell their house to pay for care. Which I suppose they probably will the selfish bastards

God, I'm going to be one of the property owning class. Rules. Time to start voting Tory in preparation!

JUNGLE BOY posted:Joe probably isn’t going to be doing amazing things elsewhere at this point If you're telling me that you don't think Joe vs Ishii would be a 4.5 snowflake match you're just clearly not as big a Joe & Ishii mark as me. (I kind of feel that Joe going somewhere else that can play into his strengths & just let him be big tough stiff dude who doesn't have to bump too much there could still be mileage in the tank but I also haven't seen him since 2018 so I could be totally wrong)

ChrisBTY posted:Raises hand. I have wondered about this. Personally I lean towards no, it's not because cruel or malicious and as far as I'm aware "Mexican who can't speak much Spanish or English" isn't much of a stereotype. Generic Luchador is an inherently absurd gimmick & it was mostly played in a way which was more absurd than demeaning. I'm not sure if Remi was starting out today he'd be do that gimmick but I don't think it was played maliciously & I dunno, intent matters to me. Though I'm sure there have been moments which maybe leaned too close to cruel because poo poo, if you watch early PWG you are going to be shocked at some of the poo poo coming out of the mouth of, for example, Excalibur. And while I think a lot of it was just young men being goofy with their friends & not trying to be hurtful, it's aged appallingly. Pope Corky the IX posted:How the gently caress did Gargano/Ciampa win Feud of the Year in 2019? Because LA Park vs Rush didn't get the blow off it deserved & because WON voters clearly didn't watch enough CMLL that year. (Mind you, Kenny Omega vs. Cody was 5th that year & that feud was loving torturous so maybe there just weren't many great options. But Park Rush should've been a landslide.) forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 15:17 on Sep 30, 2020 |
